flies the only church flag in America,
says the New York Sun. The custom of
flying flag ether than the national flag
from the turret of church is not I'M
common in the established church in
England. st. Thomas church in Mann
arOneck has many wealthy members
who are New Workers, and who have
elegant country places on the sound.
Among these is the family of James M.
Constable. When Mr.. Constable's
wife, Mrs. Henrietta Constable, died
four years ago, Mr.. Constable
and his three children built
st. Thomas church and presented it to
the parish as memorial of Mrs. Con-
stable. 1t is of stone, and though Mr.
Constable has not Informed the off GERS
of the parish what it cost, it could not
have been built for less than 100000.
church, because Mrs. Constable was
daughter of Aaron Arnold, and because
Mr.. Hicks-Arnold, sOn-in-law of Mr..
Constable, placed the Constable
memorial windows in the church and
the chime of bells in the Steeple.
When the church building was pres
ented to the parish and was eonSecra-
ted in June, 1886, the flag was part of
the gift. 1t was acceptable to the yes
tryWeH anu W heV. MI. MOuGSOll cry,
and now everybody in Mamaroneck ac-
cepts it as matter of course.
The flag is OF white bunting, and the
design shown in the accompanying cut
is in dark blue on white ground. The
design is the seal Of the parish. There
is nothing remarkable about the seal,
for every parish in America has, in ac-
cordance with an ecclesiastical law.
seal of some sort, though usually it is
much simpler than that of the church
at MamarOneck. The seal is frequently
the name of the church only. In the
cut accompanying spear is seen up

/ this to remind the beholder of the spear
with which, according to church tradi
ton, the martyr st. Thomas was killed.
Attached to the spear head is leathern
! thong, with which in ancient times the
spearman drew back his weapon after
casting it at an enemy.

Erected by few of his admirers. ]

Among those who were around the
grave were Mrs. Sheridan. and many
who had been professional and personal
friends of the dead actor. The stone
had been yelled with an American
standard, which was bedecked with
ro5etteS of black Grape. Mr.. Dampier,
by request, formally unveiled it, and
briefly, but in faltering tones, called
upon G. W. Arson, ON behalf of the the
atrical profession, to read the epitaph.
MIR. Arson broke all impressive
silence by saying that he had been
called on to bear witness to the charac-
ter of mana true man-and to the
affection and the amount of regard with
which he had been held by the people
of Australasia. He seemed to have been
not only an actor-and he said it. being
an actor himSelf-but a man in the sec
ond sense of the term, inasmuch as he
was true man to his mother and true
man to his wife. His merits need not
further be descanted upon publicly
these were best known to those who had
known him best. He then read the in.
scription and epitaph, and added that il
fond remembrance of the man who had
gone one sympathiZing thought should
be. turned to the loving woman whom
he had left behind. The assemblage
subsequently dispersed, many of its
number relating pleasant "reminiscences
of the pleasure which they had derived
from the deceased tragedian's acting in
various parts Of the world.

TIE BUSINESS MEN.
1t is believed that oysters have the
same effect upon the brains of business
men that they do on the brains of law
yers. To see this class of our citizens
pay their respects to the king of the
shells, one should go to some of the
oyster houses down on Jackson and
Fourth streets. There about the hour
bends himself, and if he has any poetry
in him, it then comes to him.
When p. II. Kelly walks up to the
little counter and gives his order, it is
with most heavenly satisfaction over
spreading his pleasant countenance. AS
the corpulent Shrewsbury slips down
that tob0ggan slide. it is just the time
to strike him for a postoffice.
Gen. Averill takes his Blue Points
with dignity and gentility, but he takes
them.
When Capt. Berkey enters the little
chop house and calls for his Saddle
Rocks, he always asks ii the taxes on
| them have been paid.
When Gen. Bishop takes his it is pure
business proposition, with no emotion
! in it at all.
When A. G.. Postlethwaite takes his
| Shrewburys he places his right hand
! just below his heart and little to the
northwest, and says, 'Ah, there. stay
! there
Lew Maxfeld is not particular what
kind of oysters he has, SO there is
enough to go round, and always calls
| for Scallops.
George r. Finch always calls for the
ice palace brand.
Charming Seabury is full of business,
and takes his raw.
d. r. Moves takes Blue Points, and
always through his politeness asks their
| pardon before he sends them to their
last resting place.
Two Shrewsburys always fill up Prof.
Fogg completely.
". p. Murray always recites the
Declaration of independence before he
takes his on the half shell.
Capt Starkey never takes less than
| half dozen of the largest Shrewsburys,
and he never stops for long speeches,
| either.
+. b. Clarke likes his oysters panne1.
II. J. StrouSe will not touch anything
but Blue Points. He's been to New
| York.
j. j. Hill and Allen Marvel take
theirs raw. It's quicker.
These are only a few Of the more
| prominent lawyers and business men
who eat oysters, but there are hundreds
! of others who are not prominent, and
| who are not even business men or law
| yerS, who eat the luscious bivalve at the
| little oyster shop.

''DO it? OF course I'll do it; but you

Gone to the granary?" cried the as

Yes" replied the aubergiste, ga

Matters had been going on thus for so

reminders the artist replied with a

one morning, when the worthy lOgeur
had got up in an exceedingly bad humor,
he said to himself that If Rubens did
not pay him before the end of the day
everything he owed him he was neither
more nor less than common vagrant,
and should be so treated.
AS fate would have it, unluckily,
when Rubens returned from the Louvre

he must, for not only did the innkeeper
refuse to listen to his most speciOus
reasoning, but to give him anything to

| Pushed to his last intrenchmentS, he
took from the wall tiny canvas, and
doing it into a package dispatched it

vided that it could be sold at once, and
setting the price at twelve hundred

A new notion is the arrangement of
fans in the window to sort of take the
place of sash curtains. Thus large
fan placed at one side, or two fixed
hour-glass fashion, with their sticks
meeting in the center, shut out the
light in degree and make the window
very pretty. A fan at one side, with
soft drapery at the other and across the

tasteful arrangement. There is no end

ously of dressing up the windows of the

Do you ask Lila. with fond caress,
What seems to me perfect happiness?
A golden day, and sapphire sky,
An emerald earth, and you and
Roaming through woodlands green together
That's happiness i'll summer weather.
And say It's winter; outside, the snow.
And inside, the fires warm. cheerful glow;
And we sit by it. cheek touching cheek.
Silent sometimes, and sometimes We speak.
So find, in summer or winter weather,
Happiness means-to be together.
